How lovely are the new Penguin Mini Modern classics ,Like the old penguin 60’s that were released for penguins 60th ,they slip neatly into a jacket pocket for use when ever you find a spare second ,although I have two book apps on my phones I find reading via phone hard at best of times so these new Minis will Keep me going for a good while as modern paperback sometimes are too big for a pocket of a casual coat .saying I don’t like my book apps I love my goodreads app great to just scan and go so to speak .

I have a kindle app on my phone, also a PDF reader my bookdroid which is my record of books read ot TBR & links with Goodreads. I also carry the latest book I’m reading & normally a book of poetry in a large courier bag .

Well…
There’s always an audio book in the car.
There’s always either the Kindle or a book in my handbag so that I’ve got something to read in the coffee shop.
There’s always a book in the car, just in case I get stranded. (Just as well, because I had to drive home in flash floods tonight and nearly gave up in despair.)
There’s some by the bed, in case I finish the one I’m reading and need another.
There’s one by the computer in case things are too slow to load.
There’s one on the coffee table in the sitting room in case the news is boring or the sport comes on.
But, no, I don’t have one on my phone because I don’t know how to do that!

I wonder how small the font is in those pocket books. Otherwise, I love the concept!

I almost always have a book with me. When I don’t, I have several book and poetry apps on my iPhone (I do an occassional search for them, and then add them) to fall back on. But instead I seem to end up catching up on blog reading from my RSS app!

I don’t have many book apps on my phone I have to say (I am a kindle hater and think it all stems from that to be honest lol) I do always have a book or two in my bag, or as when I got my Penguin Minis, in my jacket pocket just as you illustrated.

I don’t use book apps on my phone, I don’t read well on any sort of screen. I find reading on paper more relaxing so reserve screen reading for blogs and such. But I do always have books on hand wherever I go. Doesn’t matter if they’re big or small. I know it’s harder for guys because you don’t carry bags. I always tote a big enough bag for my sons’ extra shirts and stuff, and any size of book will go in it. 🙂

I always have a book with me, sometimes two if I’m at the end of one (just to be safe!) I have an e-reader but keep forgetting to use it. And I’m thinking of getting an iphone soon (I’m such a luddite and very behind with the times) so may check out some apps although seeing how I am with my e-reader I doubt I’d use it much. But we shall see.
